Heb.12:1,2 – Therefore, since we also have such a great cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let’s rid ourselves of every obstacle and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let’s run with endurance the race… Recently Dr. Cho went to be with the Lord. I have been reflecting on his life and death the …
John 15:1 – I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. David and Paul both had touched the secret of the mystery of creation. Creation exists to display various aspects of the glory of God. Jesus Himself affirmed this truth when He simply declared “I am the Vine”. God’s creation is loaded …
Jn.6:20- but Jesus called out to them, “Don’t be afraid. You know who I am.” This is an interesting conflict, the disciples were first scared of the storm and then they were afraid of the Lord. This conflict reminds me of the drama we have all faced dealing with the storm season of 2021. The …
Acts 1:4,5 – Gathering them together, He commanded them not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait for what the Father had promised, “Which,” He said, “you heard of from Me; for John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now.” The Baptism in the Spirit is …
Exod.3:14 – And God said to Moses, “ I AM WHO I AM”; and He said, “This is what you shall say to the sons of Israel: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’” Who is this One who is calling out to Moses from the burning bush? This is the God of eternity; the …
Jn.6:35 – Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life; the one who comes to Me will not be hungry, and the one who believes in Me will never be thirsty.” If we are not careful we can miss the spiritual blessings all around us because we become fixated on the problems in …
Jn.10:7-9 – So Jesus went over it again, “I speak to you eternal truth: I am the Gate for the flock. All those who broke in before me are thieves who came to steal, but the sheep never listened to them. I am the Gateway. To enter through me is to experience life, freedom, and …
Jn.10:10 – The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came so that they would have life, and have it abundantly. This passage has been quoted and mis-quoted for many, many years. It has been used to reinforce people’s doctrine and personal idea of what kind of life Christ came to provide. …
Jn.6:20 – But He said to them, “It is I; do not be afraid.” Several times in the gospels Jesus uses the phrase “I am”. Of course this immediately reminds us of Moses and the burning bush. It is a direct and obvious claim to deity; Christ is saying in essence,“I am the Lord”. The …
Jn.11:25,26 – “I am the Resurrection, and I am Life Eternal. Anyone who clings to me in faith, even though he dies, will live forever. And the one who lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?” This could be the most radical statement of all made by Jesus Christ. He …
